" Fenna! What have you done! You have betrayed the Holy Light! You actually killed Valdelmar!" General Abbendis felt like he was going crazy. He had never encountered anything like this in his forty-plus years of life. He raised his knight's sword once more. " Fenna, lay down your weapon! You must accept your punishment!"
"Yes! You must accept punishment! Put down Ashbringer! I know, you were killed by a demon! You were a demon in disguise! Attack her! Avenge Lord Fenna!" Brother Crowley shouted, his hands glowing as he prepared to cast a spell.
However, he was unable to complete the spell, because the next moment, the Ashbringer's sword tip was pointed at him, and a Hammer of Wrath fell from the sky, smashing into his head.
"The demon in disguise isn't me, it's you!" Fenna's voice was icy as she raised Ashbringer and slashed at Lord Valdelmar's corpse. "Since you won't come out, then I'll purify you!"
" Fenna! You've killed Brother Crowley again! Stop!" General Abbendis was completely enraged and was about to attack Fenna.
Intense, Holy Fire surged along the sword towards Lord Valdelmar's corpse, threatening to reduce it to ashes.
Suddenly, something strange happened.
A wisp of black energy burst forth from Lord Valdelmar's corpse, dodging the sword's edge, and drifted behind General Abbendis, transforming into a demon.
It's the Dreadlord!
It was over three meters tall, its demonic horns touching the ceiling, its outstretched bat wings blocking out the light, and its enormous shadow instantly enveloped everyone in the room.
At the same time, he extended his claws, one hand reaching for General Abbendis and the other for Commander Marjhan.
There was more than one mutation.
At that moment, the corpse of the dead Brother Crowley shed its disguise and transformed into a Felguard nearly three meters tall, wielding a two-meter-long greatsword. His target was none other than the priestess Demetria standing beside him.
Meanwhile, the Huntsman Leopold, standing on the other side, transformed into a two-meter-tall Dread Demon, unleashing Psychic Scream, a wide-range mental attack that caused the others present to scream in agony, as they were caught off guard and unable to resist.
A cold glint flashed as a poisoned dagger reached for Marjhan, who had just lifted the second chair. The other attendees also joined in, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people had ripped off their disguises—they were all demons!
Everything happened so fast that no one had time to react. The Holy Light Champion Herod fell, the Priestess Demetria fell, and Commander Marjhan also fell.
Although they were not dead yet, they were all injured and had no power to resist.
The most dangerous one is General Abbendis, because the Dreadlord is personally dealing with him.
The piercing Psychic Scream shook his mind. General Abbendis, a veteran of countless battles, possessed astonishing willpower, but he still could not resist the mind magic of the Dreadlord. For a moment, he was completely stunned and unable to move.
The Dreadlord laugh, its claws wreathed in Shadow energy, had already touched General Abbendis's back, even piercing his skin. Perhaps in less than a second, they would pierce his back and then his heart.
But at that moment, Holy Light shone brightly.
A bright shield protected General Abbendis, the Divine Shield providing him with an unbreakable defense. The caster's powerful Holy Light made the Divine Shield completely capable of withstanding a Legendary- level attack, thus Dreadlord's claws from advancing even a millimeter further.
The divine sword emitted a resounding clang, and the frail spirit of the divine sword, nurtured by countless killings, awakened, and thus the Ashbringer awakened.
Centered on Fenna, a Divine Storm of orange-red hues tinged with gold and white instantly swept across the entire room.
All the believers in the Holy Light received a baptism of Holy Light and remained unharmed, but all the demons screamed in agony in the Divine Storm. The power of the Wake of Ashes was too great; even when it spread throughout the room, most of the demons could not resist it and began to burn.
Ashbringer left a trail of ashes wherever it went. A dozen demons, their disguises torn away, were instantly engulfed in Holy Fire. A Succubus, clearly unable to withstand such damage, quickly turned to ash. The other demons attempted to resist with Shadow energy and evil energy, but to no avail.
The Dreadlord let out another shriek, clearly deeply wary of Fenna and Ashbringer's power. Knowing he was powerless to resist in this situation, and that once the situation was broken, there would be no turning back, and once the conspiracy was exposed, it would be a complete failure, he transformed into countless bats and scattered through windows, doors, and other openings, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye. Only a sinister voice echoed throughout the conference room:
"Don't be too smug, you insectoid creatures of Azeroth! The Legion will return, the war you crave is upon us! I, Balnazzar, will once again rise to bring fear and calamity!"
Balnazzar! It was Balnazzar, the Dreadlord who recently impersonated Renault and assassinated Old Mograine!
Those who are still alive are filled with deep fear and lingering dread.
If Ashbringer hadn't suddenly appeared and exposed the demon's plot, they might have been silently killed before long, and then the entire Tyr's Hand would have fallen into the demon's hands.
Even Highlord Mograine, far away in Southshore, could be caught in this conspiracy, and the entire Order of the Silver Hand would truly be split in two, plunging the entire Kingdom of Lordaeron into an endless civil war!
At that time, the situation in Lordaeron, which had only just begun to stabilize, would collapse once again. Countless people would die, and it was uncertain whether this fragile nation could withstand such a devastating blow.
This conspiracy was
The truth has been revealed, but what about next time?
The Dreadlord's ability to disguise itself was so strong that even General Abbendis, Grand Knight, failed to detect it. It's not that no one has used " Sense Evil," but the Dreadlord and other demons don't directly change their disguises; instead, they possess human bodies and can even use Holy Light!
This kind of disguise is really hard to see through.
Only Jiang Jie, with his game pod, could directly scan for the demons lurking within his body and easily find them all.
Just as Balnazzar said, his next arrival will bring an even more terrible disaster!
This time they managed to expose his conspiracy, but who knows if they'll be able to do so next time?
After all, Ashbringer can't always appear in time.
However, it is clear that their worries were unnecessary.
Because just as Balnazzar transformed into a bat and flew out of the room, a loud voice rang out in the sky, carrying a cold mockery:
" Balnazzar, now that you're here, you're not leaving!"
Brigitte was moving slowly and had just reached the door, looked up and saw a scene she would never forget.
